写作小贴士
此类题目是典型的argumentative essay双边类的写法，这类问法在剑桥系列丛书五册到八册中共出现过九次，建议此类文章分为四段来写，body paragraphs分为两段展开，首先，第二段可以写政府set up a fund to provide money发展艺术事业的诸多benefits，比如：To begin with, the arts make money, to be specific, arts organizations create jobs, spur local economy, and generate tax revenues. Then, the arts attract tourists, for a primary reason for travel is to experience the cultural offerings of other areas. The arts bring people to town and keep then there much longer. Last but not least, the arts provide a high rate of return on public investment. The arts strengthen a community in many ways. One investment can reap many rewards 。其次，第三段可以写利用这些钱发展public health和education的种种reasons，for example, in the first place, spending money on the public health is critical to reducing health care costs and improving health in one country and it is the heart and soul of public health and is crucial in preventing and managing disease as well. In the second place, these funds will also go to screening that is crucial in catching the infection early so people can stay healthy for as long as possible. In the next place, to remain competitive, the nation must increase the number of college graduates. Cutting the spending on education would put college out of reach for many low-income students。最后，在文章收尾处present your own viewpoint。以上观点仅供参考(brainstorming)，在具体写作过程中酌情使用!

How the government’s money should be reasonably invested has always been heatedly debated among the public. Some are in favor of providing funds for arts, whereas others support the money to be spent on public health and education. As to me, it is hard to make a choice because both views are rational to some extent. Admittedly, the art fields do need government’s support. First, art fulfills a valuable function in enriching people’s spiritual lives. Entertained by the different art forms, people may feel relaxed and get refreshed, and by learning art, individuals have excellent opportunities to develop their sense of creativity, helping them make greater contributions and have greater achievements. Second, with the government’ investment in art, a better social atmosphere can be established, and the national culture can be better inherited. In this sense, ignorance of the importance of art may result in a huge price for the society to pay for However, education and health care of the public also require the funding from the government. To start with, the revenue of the government mainly comes from the public in the form of taxes, which means, the public, in various occasions, have the right to enjoy a better service, with health care and education being just two of the basic ones. Also, with more money being invested in these fields, people will be healthier and better educated, and thus their productivity can be improved, contributing to a more promising development of the country and society. In addition, by investing in health and education, the social stability can be ensured due to the reduction in crimes and the narrowing of the gap between the rich and the poor, the image of the government can be maintained because of the loyalty of the public, and then a sustainable development of the country can be expected. To sum up, the government not only needs to invest in the field of art, but also in health and education of the public. Only with more care being paid on the welfare of the public, can the government win over the support of its people and then fulfill their responsibilities better.
